Blankie Boy

Ben and I were getting ready for church last week and little man was being really fussy. So while I was in the bathroom, Ben set Noah on our bed a midst all of the sheets cause our bed wasn't made. About a half a minute later Noah was not only quiet but he was fast asleep. Curious as to what calmed him down so quick, Ben and I went in to look and he had nuzzled his face into the sheets. So I decided to try it out at nap time, sure enough, I put his blankey on his face and he nuzzeled right up to it and fell right asleep. So funny. I love learning all of our munchkin's little "quarks".

Smiles all around

So munchkin started smiling at us a few days ago, the only thing is you never know when it is coming, so that makes it a little hard to get a picture of his happy face. I know this picture is fuzzy, but it is only one I could get of his precious little smile. Talk about melt your heart!

I think his eyes are blue

I know that they say babies eyes can change color and they can change up until they are one year. But I think that Noahs eyes are blue, especially in this blue onsie. What do you think?

Dear Noah-2 Months

Hi Sweet Boy!
I can’t believe you have been here for almost two months now, and let me tell you your daddy and I have loved every minute. You are changing so much every day and it seems like you are literally growing right before our eyes. This morning I went into your room to get you for our first meal date of the day and you were in a totally different position then when I laid you down the night before. Your daddy and I are so incredibly proud of you. You have consistently slept for 6-7 hours at night for the past week. And you were sleeping 5-6 hours at night when you were 4 weeks old. That makes for two happy parents.
This morning after our breakfast date, you fell back asleep in my arms. I love watching your little smiles as you dream and how your little mouth hangs open when you are fast asleep. One of my favorite things you do is when daddy or I burp you on our shoulder you pick up your head and nuzzle our necks and cheeks. You also love to be right up near our mouths, and seem content to just be right up touching our lips with yours. You don’t have much control over your head yet but man are you trying. Some of the nick-names that you have been given are bobble head, little man, munchkey, bright eyes, milk breath, monkey, little bobbin, and noaster the toaster. You have defiantly stolen both of our hearts baby.
Your daddy and you have such a cute little bond already. Your favorite thing to suck on is his pinky finger, it must be just the right size. You have even started to look for it and root around as soon as he picks you up. You seem to already recognize his voice. The other day I was holding you and daddy came up behind you and you immediately brightened up and tried to turn your head to see him.
You are such a joy to our lives. You have your fussy moments but they are very few. As long as you are dry and full you are perfectly content to sit and watch us and everything around you, give you a pinky to suck on and you are happy as a clam for hours. Daddy and I both think we lucked out, you are such a good baby. We love you baby
